I saw both the headline and the picture caption and my brain shut down. Garriott, LORD FREAKIN' BRITISH, an employee of crackersoft? Oh please. This is like saying Harrison Ford is an employee of 20th Century Fox because he develops a movie with them. I'm not sure the KT fully groks who Richard Garriott is. He sure the hell wouldn't think of himself as an employee. |

In the computer game world, Richard Garriott is a super star. One would not describe him as a simple employee of a Korean software company. Further, Garriott would be funding his own trip with maybe some promo deal with NCSoft. The headline writer presents a rather distorted picture, making it seem like a Korean software company is going to send a lowly employee into space. |

No doubt, Richard Garriott, creator of the Ultima Series and ultima online is a legend in the computer gaming industry. If anything he should be considered a partner of NCSoft, considering NCSoft's next big production is being marketed as Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa. He's like Sid Meier and the Civilization series.

It opened in 2,275 theaters across the nation. |
It's opening day, assuming a ticket price of $10, each theater packed in a tidy 68 people. Wow! |

Richard Garriott is no employee, to be sure.
Oh, and by the way. Damn EA to hell.
Also: $10 for a movie? These days? seriously? Isn't it more like $15? |

Those photos you post you call art? Gosh. Looks like typical point 'n' shoot to me. "ohhh I'm taking photos of people's feet at Burger King. That's art!"
Sorry man, you're kinda shattin' on your own art if you're trying to pass that hum drum stuff off as art. |
